The surface symptoms are striking. The tendency is to throw out vesicles,herpetic vesicles which are isolated, and the tendency of the vesicles is to form thick yellow crusts,with considerable moisture. The vesicles break early. At times the vesicles do not form crusts, butbreak early and ulcerate underneath, and this changes into a phagedenic ulcer; this condition occursabout the fingers, scrotum, face and scalp. There is a special tendency to produce vesicular eruptionsabout the back of the neck. Papular, pustular, vesicular, dry, mealy eruptions, but most commonlymoist; eruptions which extend deeply.

When the crust dries down it indurates, and thisinduration takes place at the margin and builds up little rings about the margin. The induration cracks,bleeds, looks purple. Apply this to salt rheum, and eruptions about the hands. It is suitable when thereare cracks about the ends of the fingers and on the backs of the hands.
